Recent neuroimaging studies have shown the importance of the prefrontal and anterior cingulate cortices in deception. However, little is known about the role of each of these regions during deception. Using positron emission tomography (PET), we measured brain activation while participants told truths or lies about two types of real-world events: experienced and unexperienced...

Absorbed doses were estimated after intravenous administration of 18f-labeled radiopharmaceuticals in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) studies. These radiopharmaceuticals, [18f]-2-Fluoro-2-Deoxy-D-Glucose (FDG), 6-[189F]Fluoro-L-Dopa (FDOPA) and 18f-5-Fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUR), are used in clinical research at the Cyclotron and Radioisotope Center of Tohoku University...
